this is so not how i imagined spending my first christmas break home from college. don't get me wrong, i've had some good times since i've been home, but working 40 hours a week and not having a car renders me virtually useless. i feel like a burden ALL THE TIME. at the end of the day, i feel left out and lonely, which is my own fault because it's

You aren't a burden, it is nice to have you around and I don't mind helping you always. Honestly, I'm pretty sure that is what being an adult is like and I'm sorry you're getting a taste of it so quickly. Honestly, though, as adults, we will be so goddamn free to be with each other. It's going to be amazing. I love you always.

cheer up kiddo, as bratty and whiny as you might think that sounds it's perfectly understandable. nobody wants to have to spend their school breaks working their asses of, feeling distant from their amigos and amigas because they have to be responsible. "growing up" can be really crappy like that sometimes.

it really hit me for the first time my first winter break home from school. other than getting to head down there to visit your bro, all my breaks have mostly been spent working or doing school stuff. hell, this intersession i'm taking two courses, doing research, and working 20 hours a week. it's bloody awful.

in any event, i just wanted to post to let you know that you shouldn't be too hard on yourself for whining about having a crappy break. you're in the prime of your young adulthood, and it sucks that you can't enjoy your "free time" (as in the time away from classes and such like that) more than you are now. i hope things turn around for ya.

and till they do, do your best to enjoy what little fun time you do have. ^^

Hey, I think what you are feeling is normal, I mean who wants to come home from college to go back to work? It a necessity but an annoying one. I think college is a harder "adult" time because not only are we going to school, but we have to work as well. When we get out of college we'll work, make a living and not have the burden of going to school as well. Cheer up, you do need to take some time off of work, and school, so you can relax. Love ya!
